President's Message - 5/6/21

5/6/2021 10:29 am

Hello, Schimelpfenig PTA Members!
 
It's hard to believe that it's already May and this very different school year is soon coming to a close!  But before it ends on May 27th, there is a lot happening!  This week is national Teacher Appreciation Week.  Don't forget to #ThankATeacher for all they have done for our students this year.  Also this week, Algebra I students took an EOC exam.  Next week, all students will take STAAR Reading, and some will take STAAR Math, Science, and Social Studies. We also have our last PTA General Assembly Meeting on Wednesday, May 19th at 6:00 p.m., and 8th grade students will be enjoying a special extended lunch on Tuesday, May 25th. And, of course, this Sunday, May 9th, is Mother's Day.  Thank you to all Moms for everything that you do!
 
May is Mental Health Month

Since 1949, Mental Health America and affiliates across the country have observed May is Mental Health Month. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the mental health of people of all ages. Now, more than ever, it is critical to reduce the stigma around mental health struggles, because that stigma often prevents individuals from seeking help. Mental Health America’s 2021 Mental Health Month Toolkit #Tools2Thrive has practical tools that everyone can use to improve their mental health and increase resiliency.

May is also National Physical Fitness & Sports Month

Each May the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness & Nutrition encourages Americans to #MoveinMay in celebration of National Physical Fitness & Sports Month. This year, the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness & Nutrition is teaming up with the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion’s (ODPHP) to promote safe physical activity while practicing social distancing with the Move Your Way campaign.  Learn more at:  Walk. Run. Dance. Play. What's your move? - Move Your Way | health.gov
